Abstract

As the world is rapidly urbanizing, the smart growth theory is widely applied into the urban development and is becoming a more and more important issue. The paper provides a method to evaluate the degree of the urban smart growth, which could give some instructions of making plans for urban development. Based on the 3E's sustainability (Economically prosperous, socially Equitable, and Environmentally Sustainable), ten principles of smart growth are classified into six aspects, named as growth patterns and trends, nature resources and environmental quality, transportation, affording house, fiscal dimensions, and survey of opinion leaders. Each aspect has several indicators in detail. Fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (FAHP) is used to determine the weight of the indicators in every aspect. It is similar to deal with the weight of six aspects in the metric. In order to analyze quantitatively, the indicators are graded roughly based on practical data.
